100 questions

Today in maths I got 100/100 questions right in 4 minutes and 57 seconds. I have improved a lot because the first week we did 100 questions I was slow and didn't get all of them right, I feel more confident because I am getting faster and all of the questions right. My next goal is to work on 6 x 9 and get quicker at answering the questions.

The walk to camp

On the 5th of March my class went to camp, we went to Spencer Park. I was really excited except for the 2-3 hour walk. Just from school to the beach I was already tired, the whole walking group was the fastest any group has walked. We did it in 2 hours when it was supposed to be 3 hours. What kept me going was thinking to myself if we continue to walk we will get there. Another thing that kept me going was my friend had a container of lollies, most people had some and so did I. Me and my friend Rylee kept encouraging each other which was something else that wasn't stopping me.

 After about 1 and a half hour of walking on the beach some of my other friends found a path that led to where the bikers were, we had a bit of a break and then continued our walk. We are now in a forest, the walkers left, 10 minutes after we had gone the bikers started again. Some of the walkers went way ahead of us and that was when I thought we were lost. Before we left Mr Redmond said he would tie string onto trees so we knew where we were going. My legs were hurting really badly, but the main thing was I didn't give up. It was a bit of a struggle to keep going,

Maths - 100 questions

I have achieved my goal by doing 100 questions in 10 minutes, my time today was 6 minutes and 33 seconds. I have almost achieved my 9 x 7 times table. My next goal is to try get under 6 minutes.

Also this week we have been working in groups. What worked was everyone had a go at trying to solve a problem and we all talked about why we think it was the answer we put. Everyone contributed in my group. Even though 2 people in my group didn't get the answer right we still had a go at trying to figure it out.
